Again warnings, complaints filed, prior incidents NOTHING DONE not Trump or NRA fault politically correct school system

Colorado shootings facts: 1. Transgender shooter. 2. Female on transtion to male. 3. No semi-automatic weapons. 4. Fake news focus on the victim and never mention she was a trans.

I did a search of list of school shootings in the USA (Wikipedia) n this problem has been going on since the 19th century (1840 to present).How many more administrations of the 3 branches of government? But still nothing has been done about it!! Stop talking about it Be about it!

Imagine being at work and your child texts you they are in lock down, a shooter is in the school. Unimaginable, gutwrenching, terrifying. This is the reality of living in a Country that defends & protects the right to bare firearms over protecting children

the kids were leftys....

The new 3 Rs: readin', 'ritin' & run for your lives. It's madness this is allowed to persist.

God bless the NRA.

My mom would still call.😂

Horrific 😲

Alternative Headline: “Anti Trump man shoots up school”

the way he talk, its like a normal situation in US

Yes Trump loves to endorse the NRA but does not mention kids being killed by the guns he supports money over lives

Did you see the kids get pissed and walk out of the vigil when an anti-gun speaker tried to politicize the tragedy? I’m sure you did but you’ll refuse to report it.

😨😭

Please stop glorifying violence, fake news

Now ALL PARENTS must choose. Their children or their bluster for gun worshipping culture. Its that simple. Stop giving people the benefit of doubt. Do we want to continue wondering if our kids will make it through the school day without getting shot or killed. Decide.

my name is mud primus' 68,... 70's, a breath after the war'- pantera(revolution is my name)

No child should know this. No parent should be scared out of their minds after reading this from their child. As a parent, what are you supposed to do after this? Wait outside the school hoping it wasn’t your kid? That it might be someone else’s instead?

How about the texts that said 'Mom. gunshots in the classroom next to ours. So wish our teacher was allowed to be trained in the use of a gun to protect us when they walk in here.'

And Trump just spoke at an NRA convention a few days ago. They make people think common sense gun legislation will lead to no guns for anyone. Something needs to change.

If people didn’t have easy access to guns, such incidents couldn’t happen.

If I got the same message from my child, I would probably have a heartattack😞may no parent have to go through this

Still they refuse to arm the teachers and protect the students and yet they complain that this still happens if there were armed officials on the campus the shooters would probably think twice or not try at all.

I hope he and his friends would be ok.

Why this kid got their phone in class

😱

Oop!

Show us some text from kids right before they were killed by drunk drivers! 3x more deaths than guns. Hypocrisy is real!

Heartbreaking. Absolutely devastating.

How to talk to your kids about school shootings, like the one at Colorado's STEM schoolAfter the shooting at STEM school Highlands Ranch in Colorado, we revisit how to talk to your kids about school shootings. It’s called a gun training course I'm always interested in hearing what these shooters backgrounds are in regards to school discipline. Are these kids that have been suspended numerous times, have criminal backgrounds, or are they just snapping? Just wondering out loud. By not using any “logical” declaration from usa today...

One student dead in shooting at suburban Denver school, police say; seven other students injuredMultiple injuries are reported at a suburban Denver school as police responded to reports of gunshots, according to law enforcement authorities. I have a strong guess what the gop and nra will blame, it is something that is legal in Colorado but it is not a gun. Mental health is the problem and there’s no place for these people to be checked out because Obama close them down Damn. More traumatized children and families.
